As pointed out, the syntax you used is incorrect. It should be
:73-84.CA :139-150.CA
Also, take a look at the output from ptraj. Normally this is best piped
to a file:
ptraj prmtop >& ptraj.out
For each distance, information on the atom selection ptraj found will be
printed. Likely, as the mask was misspecified, all atoms were selected
and ptraj calculated the center of mass of all atoms to the center of mass
of all atoms which would give zero distance.
If ptraj in amber8 and amber11 are different, likely they are interpreting
the incorrect atom mask specification differently. Look at the respective
outputs. If not enough information is present, increase the verbosity.
